Just a quick one that many overlook~

Make sure the brake fluid reservoir is not too full as the fluid will have
no option but to compress the caliper when it (the fluid) gets hot and
expands.

Just had it happen to me on my streetbike two weeks ago; drained some fluid
from the reservoir and all was good again.

Hope this helps somebody sometime =)
